Hacking RELEASE [Official] ReiNX thread [DEAD]

[Draxzelex]

So ive updated to 6.0 FW and got the latest reinx nightly build but when i load the exploit i get the error has occurred screen all the time, any ideas?

Don't use the latest nightly; it's broken. Use the one right before it: http://builds.reinx.guide/nightly/ReiNX-705bd5f.zip

hmmm that didnt seem to help. I did notice Windows installed a Switch driver or something, would that have something to do with it, as as the exploit is loading the usb notification sound goes off 2-3 times??

Unless Windows decided to delete your libusbK drivers, that shouldn't make a difference. Try the following nightly builds:

Just to be safe, see if the libusbK drivers are still installed. For some reason a while back i had to install them a second time

Ok that got me boot in with out the error message but when i load the album button it actually loads the album page and not the homebrew menu. I did notice it keeps prompting me theres a controller update, do i need to update the controller?

So it sounds like your SD card is formatted as exFAT but your console doesn't support exFAT. Either download the exFAT update online, install the exFAT update offline, or format the SD card to FAT32.

just tried reinstalling but can get the homebrew menu, just the actual album menu appears, does anything on the SD card need changing (apart for ReiNX update files) since 5.1 to 6.0 FW?

Yeah that could be the issue, i wasnt aware there was an exFAT update, where can this be found please?

That is copyrighted content and cannot be linked here. Follow the hints provided in the ChoiDujourNX thread (main tool used to provide exFAT offline):

• Extract the UPDATE partition from an XCI image of the cartridge that contains the update you want into a folder

These are common cartridges and firmware versions they contain:
Puyo Puyo Tetris/ 1-2 Switch (1.0.0) - would never recommend installing this one as no Switch made with 1.0.0 actually runs it (its a slightly different 1.0.0 with exFAT that bricks you)
Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2/ Mario plus Rabbids Kingdom Battle/Cars 3 Driven to Win (2.1.0)
Splatoon 2/ Sonic Forces (2.3.0)
Pokemon Tournament DX (3.0)
Batman The Telltale Series/ Syberia 2/ The Elder Scrolls V. Skyrim (3.0.1)
Attack on Titans 2/ Xenoblade Chronicles 2 (3.0.2)
Bayonetta 2/ Gal Gun 2 (4.0.1)
Kirby Star Allies (4.1.0)
Octopath Traveler (5.0.2)
Taiko no Tatsujin Nintendo Switch Version JPN (5.1.0)

• Copy the SYSTEM:/Contents/registered folder from another Switch that is running the firmware version you want
• Copy the SYSTEM:/Contents folder from a Switch that has a "System update is pending" notification. This will let you pick either the currently running firmware, or the pending firmware to install.
• *cough* xbins *cough*

Ah thats fairly involved, guess ill just have to backup the SD card and format it to FAT32.....seems the easiest option

 

[lettuce]

Ok not having much luck, just formated my 128GB SD card to FAT32 and now when i load the payload its saying, Error: Failed to init SD card

What did you format your SD card with? Maybe you should try formatting it with another tool such as Rufus.

 

[lettuce]

I used EaseUS Partition Master, ill give Rufus a go thanks

Not sure what the issue is tried 2 different SD cards and after the payload has loaded i go to the Album button but instead of loading the homebrew menu it just loads the Album screen instead

Do you have a folder that ends in 100D under titles (which is subsequently under ReiNX) as well as hbmenu.nro on your root?

 

[lettuce]

Ah no i dont, infact i dont even know where that folder is, just download the first release of ReiNX and its not included with it.

These are the files i have on a fresh SD card

Nintendo/>Album/
Contents/
save/
switch/>appstore/
Tinfoil.nro
ReiNX/>patches/
sysymodules
splash.bin

hbmenu.nro

other than the tilte folder is there anything missing?

 

[waveathon]

Never mind

Thanks.

So is it ok to update the controller, as the prompt keeps popping up??

You can do it the way @Draxzelex told you few posts earlier with ChoiDujourNX... to install the Exfat update offline...

But im already on the latest official FW from Nintendo. What im asking is, does updating the controller when prompted actually effect anything with homebrew or getting the console in RCM etc?
